West Hanover supervisors review budget; no tax increase expected

West Hanover Township supervisors reviewed the township's 2013 preliminary budget on Monday. Township manager Betz England does not believe there will be a tax increase.

She said she anticipates total spending to remain about the same as 2012, $2.4 million. The township's tax rate is .9147 mills, plus .2708 mills for those who pay for fire service, totaling 1.1875. A property assessed at $100,000 costs $1,187.50 in taxes.

The budget is expected to be ready for adoption on Dec. 17.

Budget workshop meetings are at 6 p.m. every Monday in October. Residents will have opportunities to comment between Nov. 17, when the budget will be posted online, and Dec. 17. 
